About Me

I'm Jared Ford.

Growing up, I was always a creative kid and one of my outlets was writing. For whatever reason, I quit writing around age 19. Fast forward to August 21st, 2017 — my 26th birthday— I'm witnessing a total solar eclipse, deep into Oregon. The experience changed me. Inspired, I vowed to stop hiding from my passion and dove back in. This website is the result.

I don't want to be caged in, type-cast or defined into a set genre, so I wont. Expect to see me writing  across a wide spectrum of topics: Travel, Short Fiction, Poetry, Philosophy, Space, History, Digital Journalism, and more. My imagination is my most powerful tool and I will follow it wherever it goes, which is many a strange, far-off place. So strap in readers and hold on tight, because I have no idea where this train is going!

Finding God - Free Will and The Multiverse

Finding God Free Will and The Multiverse There is a rarely a night I fall asleep without having read every new Science article on Google News. For me, it's comparable to those countdown calendars you get for Christmas, but instead of fueling a sweet tooth with a nightly treat of chocolate, I get to fuel my curiosity. I can't get enough of it. Many of the concepts are too technical or advanced for me to fully grasp, but it sure doesn't stop me from trying. There is one theory that has ensnared my imagination these days, one that has become omnipresent in my mind—the Theory of the Multiverse. If you aren't familiar, allow me to attempt a brief explanation. Multiverse Theory has many variations but, at it's core, is the belief that our universe is but one universe among infinite universes, all existing simultaneously. All space, matter, and energy that has ever existed makes up these many universes. Now for the time being, there is no way to test this th

I AM A FUCKHEAD

I've always been told I learn everything the hard way, and looking back on my life thus far, I couldn’t agree more. I used to feel resentment about this aspect, imagining I was being picked on by some higher power, a bully with a magnifying glass on little Jared Ford. Ha!   Alas, I seem to have entered into a new phase . Whether that is because of changes I've been trying to implement, or just an inevitability of aging, I can't be sure, but I finally feel that I’m gaining the ability to recognize potential for growth within my mistakes. It’s taken 26 years, but maybe I know why this obstacle-ridden road has been my path — to teach others. If I’m going to constantly stumble through life, the least I can do is try to shed light on a few metaphorical bridges I’ve traveled that were missing a plank or two, and hopefully, prevent you from stumbling yourself. Now, I could tell stories about my many shortcomings for days on end, but I’d like to share a little

REVELRY

REVELRY By: Jared Ford rev•el•ry ˈrevəlrē noun Lively and noisy festivities, especially when these involve drinking a large amount of alcohol. "Sounds of revelry issued into the night" A better definition could scarcely be found Agreed every irritated neighbor around I awoke to the thunder that ended my slumber Who creates such a riot, I suffered to wonder The wild things are here And with them, comes fear Fear of the roars, and thumps in the night Echoes of monsters who scream their delight How peculiar, how odd, why here? Why now? What stirs their heart to arouse such a howl? The wild things I hear As I slowly draw near Their beastly attire, gleams ever brighter As the fire spins higher, their eyes do inspire They dance with such glee, their spirit carefree How enticing for me, this uncouth jubilee… The wild things I’ve seen Don’t appear all that mean Into the light, I announced my arrival A dozen kind sm

50 Shades of America

The United States of America.   Doesn't feel so "United" right now, does it? If you've watched the news, logged into social media, or just visited the internet in the past 2 years, then you're probably more than aware of the ideological divide in America these days.  So what happened?  I think one of the first and foremost issues at hand, is that Americans have forgotten what exactly an  American looks like. In today's world of hand-picked news, feedback loops, and "safe spaces", it's become effortless to only see and hear those people that you agree with. Suddenly your preferred image and audience is easy to see and anything else that challenges your views can be simply blocked, removed, or unfollowed. It becomes easy to believe that a "real American" is someone who looks, talks, and thinks a lot like you do.   We forget that this nation is made up of 50 independent states, smaller de facto nations, that vary i

Finding God

 This series I call Finding God and it is an example of questions that plague me on a daily basis, and the process of my imagination, going back to my first memories... What/where/how is God, What/how/why am I? What if everything you’ve ever believed was wrong? If everything you take for granted and assume as fact, is just plain wrong… Look around you. Pick an item, anything... Odds are, you are looking at something very hard and solid. Touch it. Feel how solid it is, there is no denying that its right in front of you, that it is indeed a solid mass, right? Well, whatever solid you chose, is 99% nothing at all. In fact, there is so much empty space in that solid thing, that certain wavelengths have no trouble traveling straight through it without even the slightest collision, and it appears on the other side. At the center of each atom is a tiny nucleus situated in empty space. How much empty space? Lets use a peanut to represent the nucleus, and Wrigley Field to rep
